Indoor photo of a seated man in a maroon-red dhoti and wrap with a gold border and a long beaded rudraksha-style necklace, holding an orange mug in one hand while extending the other arm toward a boy beside him. He has white tilak and a red bindi on his forehead and dark hair tied in a bun. Beside him sits a young boy in a white kurta with a red printed sash and a name badge on his chest, smiling and looking toward the man. Behind them a large printed portrait shows a smiling woman in a red-and-saffron garment with a long braid, and a colourful poster hangs on the left wall. Both sit on a cream-covered platform with a leopard-print cushion.

A seated man in a maroon and gold-bordered dhoti and shawl, with rudraksha-style beaded necklaces and a white vertical tilak with red bindi, smiles while holding an orange mug and reaching to touch the head of a person wrapped in an orange towel. A bare-chested figure with long hair and distinctive ornaments is visible; the beaded garlands and ochre dress are present, but the appearance is partially obscured. Behind him a large portrait shows a smiling person in orange turban and saffron robes. A second person in white and a child in a red-bordered shawl are at right on a white mat with a leopard-print cushion.2015-07-13July 13 20152015-07-13A seated man in a rust-red robe with a gold-coloured border and a long beaded gold-toned necklace touches the forehead of a young boy with curly light-brown hair who wears a white embroidered kurta. The man has a white horizontal tilak on his forehead and bare upper arm, and holds an orange cup on a white-draped table.

Two people are visible.2015-07-13A seated man in a rust-orange dhoti-style wrap with gold border, wearing a long rudraksha mala, rests his right hand on the head of a young boy in an orange-and-white striped shirt who leans forward with bowed head. The man has swept-back hair in a bun and a red tilak. Behind him a woman in white watches, and a gold-framed deity murti and a gold ornament sit on a table at the side of a hall with a projector screen and green plants. The gesture appears to be a blessing given during a gathering.2013-12-10A seated man in saffron-orange robes with a bare chest and a long rudraksha mala with a gold-toned ornament sits on an ornate gold throne with a tiger-striped cushion. He has long swept-back dark hair, a white sandalwood mark on his forehead, and a small gold earring. A young boy in a blue-and-white checked shirt kneels before him, receiving or handing over a small white paper. A large smiling portrait of a man in an orange turban is behind them. Swamiji (probable) by appearance cues: long hair, saffron robes, rudraksha mala and throne.

On the left, a man with a shaved head and a forehead tilak wears a white dhoti and a red shawl printed with script, and holds a bead mala. On the right, a man with long swept-back hair, a white forehead band, and a gold beaded necklace wears a rust-red and gold-bordered dhoti and shawl. He extends his arm to hand an orange cup toward the seated man on the left. Behind them, a large framed photograph shows a smiling figure in pink and red robes with a long garland, and a poster on the left shows a group of people in robes. The right-hand figure has distinctive long hair, ceremonial gold necklace and saffron-coloured clothing, consistent with the page's reference to a person, though the appearance is not conclusive.2015-07-13A seated man in orange-saffron robes with a long rudraksha mala and a white and red forehead marking smiles as he places his hand on the head of a young boy in a grey t-shirt who leans toward him with palms pressed together.

The boy holds his left palm up in a gesture of receiving. Gold lion-head armrests and a dark chair frame the seated figure, with a large white screen behind. A man's shoulder is partly visible at the right edge. The setting suggests a blessing during an indoor satsang or darshan. The seated figure's distinctive long hair in a bun, brown robe and mala cues make Swamiji a probable candidate, shown in person giving a blessing.2013-12-12December 08 20132013-12-08A seated man in a rust-red and gold shawl with a rudraksha mala draped over his shoulders and a white tilak on his forehead reaches out to touch the forehead of a young boy in a white t-shirt with a red lanyard.
